Extreme Diving

I just had this random thought. So current altitude limits on diving into water is limited by max-speed descent into water before killing yourself. What if you had an airfoil shaped diving capsule that was hydrodynamically shaped to mimize drag in water for gradual deceleration? With a properly engineered capsule, could you then do a dive from 35,000ft into water safely? Would people pay to do this?

Alright, I'm going to go back to bed. Invention hours over.
